Package Exports
- euler-method
- euler-method/index.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (euler-method) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
Euler-Method
This is a package for approximating (numerically) the solution to differential equations of the form $y'=f(x,y)$ where $y$ is a function of $x$ and $f(x,y)$ is a function of both $y$ and $x$. Learn more.
const eulerMethod = require('euler-method')
console.log(eulerMethod('y', 100, { x: 0, y: 1 }, 0.3))eulerMethod(func, iterations, initial, final)
func - Required - The mathematical function to evaluate - Ommit the $y'$ part (Input 'y' for the differential equation $y'=y$, for example) - Uses mathjs formatting - See here for more information
iterations - Default: 100 - Number of times to iterate Euler's Method - More times yields more accurate results (but takes more time)
initial - Default: { x: 0, y: 0 } - A value that is guarenteed to be on the function - Due to the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, differential equations have an infinite amount of solutions (determined up to a constant), so an "initial" value needs to be provided to calculate a unique value for the function
final - Default: 10 - This is the value for which the function will be approximated to - The $y$ value will be outputed for this particular $x$ value - Using $y'=y$, for example, a final value of $10$ will give the value for $y$ when $x=10$
